Patio Design in London

“We knew our garden needed a revamp, and we wanted it to be “grown-up” but still welcoming, but had few preconceived ideas. Not being gardeners ourselves, we didn’t have any plant knowledge but knew the styles we did and didn’t like. Peter, through relaxed discussion and an exchange of images, of gardens and plants, somehow managed to gauge the sort of thing we were hoping for. We were genuinely excited by Peter’s design when we saw it on paper and it was a pleasure to see the reality appearing gradually as the work progressed. We now have a garden we love and can be proud of – relaxed and elegant at the same time. Almost a year on, we still smile every time we look out of the window. The garden has remained a wonderful focal point throughout the winter months, thanks to Peter's thoughtful planting, and with Spring not far off, we are looking forward to the bulbs Peter introduced us to putting in an appearance.”

“"We recently worked with John on a project to make the most of a small space. John understood our requirements and quickly turned these into a great design. We were also very grateful for all John's support throughout the project, from sourcing a landscaper through to ensuring his vision became reality - we were delighted with the results and wouldn't hesitate recommending him to others'.”

“I hired David Simpson to redesign our small London garden from scratch - both hard and soft landscaping. We discussed the kind of use we wanted to get from the garden and the style which we wanted with David. He then submitted designs which showed a very inventive and thoughtful use of the space. David then project managed the hard landscaping of the garden. He recommended the builder and negotiated a reasonable price. We were thrilled with the job the builder Stephen Robinson carried out. Everything was completed promptly and to budget to a very high standard. David then designed a planting schemeto complement the new garden design. He clearly has a very strong feel for shape and colour and he left us with a beautifully designed and executed patio garden, with sympathetic planting, and ideally suited to our needs. I would recommend him without reservation.”

“London Stone have worked closely with Harrington Porter for around 10 years. During that time we have had the pleasure of supplying our finest products to some very prestigious projects across the London area. I have personally visited a number of completed gardens and the design and workmanship is always of the highest quality. The team are great to work with and I look forward to many more years of cooperation and continued business.”

“My second, but much larger project with Emma is now complete, and we are delighted to be looking out over our garden which underwent a beautiful and complete transformation under the careful, considered design and direction of Emma. We have exactly what we want in terms of effect, ambience and practicality and within the design are thrilling gems of creativity, and beauty. Throughout, the process was thoughtfully integrated into the overall build programme of the property and it seamlessly came together at all the right times. The process of working with Emma is always fun and exciting, not to mention that I always feel that I am in very safe hands. Her love of plants and exacting standards provide an exemplary service and gorgous outcomes. I really couldn't imagine using anyone else.”

“Georgia did an amazing job transforming our backyard into a fantastic garden space. Our spec was very brief, we knew what we wanted the space to do so but not how it would look. Georgia was very considerate of our needs and came up with a fantastic looking, and functional, design. Her brave use of colour particularly really made the space, she came up with designs we would never have thought of. All our friends and family have been wowed with the space! Would highly recommend.”

“I used Simpy Garden Design a few years ago to completely overhaul a very unloved large patio and surrounding borders. Katie is full of inspiration and ideas and created a beautiful area that has great atmosphere...something I would not have felt possible given how unpromising it was before. She is professional, reliable and really listens to what you want, there is no homogeneous, "one size fits all" approach with Katie! I can also say that the patio only gets better with age! Thank you Katie !”

“Jane is an incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful and super-friendly garden designer. The process of planning the garden was as delightful as the final, wonderful, results. (In contrast, planning with me was probably very trying for Jane as I kept changing my mind and she couldn't have been more patient or accommodating.) The final result is wondrous, way beyond what I had initially hoped for. A glorious mix of colours, heights, textures and (crucially for me) year round interest and loveliness. I'm so grateful to Jane and recommend her very very strongly.”

“To Kate and her team: Our family is delighted with the new garden that you have created for us. We did not know what to do with our former dull and neglected garden. Your inspirational and thoughtful design has transformed our garden into a joyful living space, full of colour and vibrant shrubs and flowers, which we cherish and enjoy. Your team were a pleasure to have around, working relentlessly to finish the project to high standard, on time and on budget. We happily recommend Kate Eyre to anyone who is looking for professional help with their garden. THANK YOU Renate & Lindsay”

“We worked with PM landscapes to do our garden and we can highly recommend their services. They have helpeds us design, create and build a beautiful and functional garden. They are a friendly and professional team and it was a pleasure to work with them.”
